Bobby's only been around rich people for a couple hours and Bobby already looks like the kid on the paint can.

Dale is probably the easiest character to write out of the show just from the point of view of having lots and lots of plausible things that could take him out of action: -cancer from smoking -cancer from pesticides -gun club accident -unlicensed construction project accident -fled the country due to paranoid delusion -arrested for violent anti-government activiity -black-bagged for knowing too much about a for-real conspiracy -abducted by aliens -finally learns the truth about Joseph, divorces Nancy and moves out of state

Dale is abducted by aliens and replaced by a not particularly skilled and yet inexplicably convincing impersonator.

This isn't a live action show. They'll find a suitable replacement VA and we'll discuss in perpetuity about how we miss Hardwick Dale.

Hank leaves town on a business trip for a few days, and well wouldn't you know it Peggy took Ladybird in for plastic surgery! I tell you what she looked almost ten years younger when he got back!

Have her be lying somewhere in the room for a bunch of episodes. Later it's revealed that she's been taxidermied and is just being drug from room to room by Hank.

Or even better, it's Peggy moving her around and Hank can't tell that she's been dead for years.

Hank can talk to her when looking for moral guidance like his Tom Landry commemorative plate ...that is still the weirdest thing Hank has apparently done more than once.

Is Hank's fixation on propane meant to be a way to show that he is an incredibly bland person, or did the writers not understand Texas and its love of wood smoked bbq? After living in Texas, I don't see how Hank could have had any friends with how much he talks about "tasting the meat and not the heat." He would have been shunned like a pariah for wanting to "bbq" on propane.

After living in Texas, I don't see how Hank could have had any friends with how much he talks about "tasting the meat and not the heat." He would have been shunned like a pariah for wanting to "bbq" on propane. There's a whole episode where Hank isn't allowed to grill with propane at the Texas State Fair and he's shocked that he's the only one who gives a poo poo. The propane thing is just a bit of Flanderization honestly, in the earlier episodes he doesn't hate charcoal at all. Khan grills him a burger right in front of him and Hank at first thinks the char means it's burnt, but after eating it says it's the best burger he's ever eaten.

On this point I completely agree with hank. Charcoal is a vastly inferior fuel and should not be used to cook food. I will not be taking questions thank you

I think it's just a thing he latched onto purely by happenstance and just attributes infallible virtue to it after the fact to justify his devotion, while minimizing any perceived flaws. Same way be behaves about most of the things he's devoted to in life: Buck Strickland, the Dallas Cowboys, GWB, the Board of Zoning and Resources, his dad (mostly in his earlier appearances because even he couldn't ignore how much of a jackass Cotton was)

Hank first met Buck when he was working at Jeans West. I always thought it was a made up store until I watched True Stories and John Goodman’s character walks past one at a mall.

The Buck Hank met at Jeans West seemed to genuinely have the huge passion for propane that Hank has now.

He would have been shunned like a pariah for wanting to "bbq" on propane. I think it's as simple as propane giving him a real career, getting him out of retail and since he's a hard worker (I tell ya what) who always listens to his boss, he just bought into whatever Buck Strickland said about it. To the point that he centers a lot of his identity around it. It'd be like if I started working for Apple and bought into their bullshit, where Android phones and PC's were inferior products worthy of mockery. I mean...it would if I were like Hank. My grandfather worked for Coca Cola for decades back when you could work at a company for 40 years, work your way up and collect a pension and Pepsi products were strictly forbidden in the house and mocked at every turn. I think he actually believed that Pepsi was a bastard
